PROJECTS

Featured PROJECTS

Windmill Hill Living Shoreline

EQR was contracted by the City of Alexandria, VA to construct this multi-faceted living shoreline project. The work involved replacing 1,200 feet of failing concrete and timber bulkhead with stone revetments, sand and marsh grasses. Upland improvements included replacing stormwater outfalls, a pedestrian bridge, walking trails, and a boat ramp. EQR managed 14 different subcontractors with widely varying scopes of work for this project.

Out of Town Projects

EQR is always willing to travel anywhere in the US for projects where our expertise is helpful. We have performed restoration work for a variety of clients in Wyoming, Colorado (pictured above), and Montana. Don't hesitate to contact us if you have a job outside of our normal service area!

Eisenhower Golf Course Stream Restoration

Anne Arundel County contracted EQR to restore ~6,500 linear feet of Broad Creek and 6.5 acres of wetlands. EQR also installed 15,900 square feet of concrete boardwalks to serve as golf cart paths over restored areas. EQR had to adhere to a very constrained schedule to accommodate golf course operations. In 2021, EQR received an Associated Builders and Contractors Excellence Award for our work on this project.

Beltsville Agricultural Research Center Mitigation Wetland

In 2018, Greenvest, LLC selected EQR to perform construction on this MD State Highway Administration project. The work consisted of constructing multiple wetland cells while creating 2,200 linear feet of new stream channel. The stream and wetlands are fed by existing drainage swales and an aquifer that EQR made connections to during construction.

Herrity Fountain Stormwater Retrofit

Fairfax County, VA contracted EQR to perform this complex stormwater management project. Work involved installing a 15,000 gallon cistern and water fountain with associated controls, numerous storm drain structures, and concrete walking paths and stairs. Since this project is in a high visibility government center complex heavily trafficked by pedestrians, EQR had to execute the work with meticulous attention to detail to achieve functional and aesthetic goals.

Stormwater Maintenance Contracts

Since 2012, EQR has been performing routine maintenance and repairs on aboveground stormwater facilities for several Maryland and Virginia Municipalities. Our Ecological Services Division inspects and maintains a variety of facilities including rain gardens, sand filters, bio-swales, bioretention facilities, and more! We work closely with each client to perform thousands of work orders each year, managing up to 8 specialized crews and providing constructability insights to increase efficiency.
